saw this on the news this morning, its nice to hear stuff like this. And when you hear plane crash and new york in the same sentence you instantly think 'OH SHIT'.

But this turnt out great, the pilot is a legend.

Seen this on the news online before. That guys quality.  But it would be pretty kool to (kinda) land a plane on water, and nobody died too!

Pilot is my hero... there were like 150 passenger, and no fatalities!!... great job!!... btw i've heard the cause of the accidents was a herd of swallows.... at least that was the most compresible theory...


and remember: PILOT OF THAT FLIGHT: YOU ARE MY NEW HERO!

it's pretty ridiculous.  i'm not surprised though.  dude is an ex-usaf fighter pilot/instructor.  those dudes are legit.  that's a tough job and not something that many people can deal with

says he owns a consulting firm.  he should get some pub from this.  dude deserves it

yeah.  funny how that works out.  jet + birds = mutually assured destruction
